text line spacing and line tool

1.) Using InDesign 2.0.2 - When aligning text (in one particular text frame)to a base grid, the text will always skip one line even though the base line is spaced at 15p, same as text. I do get a 12(12) in the font box rather than just the 12 as I do in other text frames. Have no problems in other text frame with same paragraph style.
2.) when using the line tool, the line is always created with a drop shadow and feathering, i.e. I have to go to "objects" and un-check each of those two features in order to get a plain line.
Thanks,
